We're looking for a full-time Payroll Officer to join our Payroll Data Management team of 9, based at our North Sydney head office.

You'll be part of a larger payroll team of 24, split into Data Management, Payroll Processing, and Payroll Accounting, all working to deliver accurate and compliant payroll services.

In this role, you'll use SAP S/4 HANA, Concur, Navigo, and ServiceNow to manage workforce master data to encompass all personal and payroll-related information for employees.

  • Conduct weekly, fortnightly and monthly compliance audit reports to proactively identify and resolve errors.
  • EBA interpretation to maintain compliance with over 90 Enterprise Agreements (and growing).
  • Manage ServiceNow tickets and inquiries from stakeholders, collaborating with internal P&C teams to resolve issues.

About you

  • Experience in high-volume payroll operations using SAP.
  • Strong understanding of multiple EBA's and their complexities.
  • Excel (intermediate to advanced skills).
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to escalate issues and advise stakeholders on complex matters.

What we offer

  • Enjoy a hybrid work arrangement working from home 3 days per week.
  • Cross train into other payroll functions.
  • Benefit from 16 weeks of paid primary parental leave.
  • Complimentary salary continuance insurance.
